Consummate April Fool!

He who looks up to the heavens and then writes himself down as an atheist, brands himself at the same moment as an idiot or a liar! The Atheist is the fool preeminently, and a fool universally! To say there is no God is to belie the plainest evidence, which is obstinacy; to oppose the common consent of mankind, which is stupidity; to stifle consciousness, which is madness. 

[Charles H. Spurgeon] 

The world we live in, is a world of fools! 

[John Jamieson] 

Who in the world is a greater fool, a more ignorant, wretched person than he who is an atheist? 

[Jeremy Taylor]

Psalm 94:8 ...  Understand, ye brutish among the people: and ye fools, when will ye be wise?

Psalm 14:1 ...The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

Psalm 19:1-3 ... The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.

A Short Time

God has given to man a short time here on earth and yet upon that short time, eternity depends!






Psalm 90:5-6 …  Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the morning they are like grass which groweth up.  In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.

Psalm 90:10 … The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.


Psalm 90:12 … So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.❤

A Good Wife

A good wife is heaven's last, best gift to man, - his gem of many virtues, his casket of jewels; her voice is sweet music, her smiles his brightest day, her kiss the guardian of his innocence, her arms the pale of his safety, her industry his surest wealth, her economy his safest steward, her lips his faithful counsellors, her bosom the softest pillow of his cares.

[Jeremy Taylor]





Proverbs 19:14 ... House and riches are the inheritance of fathers: and a prudent wife is from the Lord.


Proverbs 18:22 ... Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord.


Ephesians 5:33 ... Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.


Psalm 128:3 ... Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table. ❤

Choose Jesus = Eternal Life

God hath given to man a short time here upon earth, and yet upon this short time eternity depends.

[Jeremy Taylor]






I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: Deuteronomy 30:19

Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein. Jeremiah 6:16

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Matthew 7:13-14 ♥
